We needed to stop for the night so we found a small dirt road, followed it through some rocky fields and parked alongside a small orange grove.
Within minutes a couple approached us and communicated through gestures and smiles, that we could not stay there. Not because it was unsafe or illegal, but simply because they wanted to host us at their small home.
The next morning we met the sheep, chickens, fishpond and were invited in for a farm breakfast inside their traditional cinder block and adobe home.
We were given a contact number and invited back anytime. Kindness transcends all cultures, religions and languages.
Thank you, Zahara and Mustafa- you may never know how deeply you warmed our hearts that day!
